Wow, had no issue with this cork so maybe last one wasn't stored as well. Dark, almost thick, current and jam with heavy feel for a winter dinner of pasta and meatballs.

black ruby. nose of red cherry, blackcurrant and plum, with hints of tobacco; on the palate sweet, dense with harmonious acids giving lift to the wine's mineral flavors, well balanced, long finish. in total consistent with the last bottle we drank, but now more mature.

Consistent w the last btl. This is spot on and completely correct. The tannins remain firm and I would think 5 years of good storage would be repaid handsomely. Very nice the night before the WC semis begin. Hup Holland hup!!

Big wine, strong balanced tannin/acid finish. Decant to remove sediment.
